According to the Ideal Gas Law,
PV = KT,
where P is pressure, V is volume, T is temperature (in kelvins), and k is a constant of proportionality. A tank contains 1300 cubic inches of nitrogen at a pressure of 40 pounds per square inch and a temperature of 300 K.
(a) Determine k.

=
(b) Write P as a function of V and T and describe the level curves.
P =
Setting P = c, the level curves are of the form V =
After carrying out repeated measurements for the pressure of a gas and making the calculations, the values 1.543780 Pa and 0.055000 Pa were obtained for the principal value and the uncertainty, respectively. The correct measurement result is:
a) (1.5 ± 0.05) Pa
b) (1.544 ± 0.055) Pa
c) (1.54 ± 0.055) Pa
d) (1.543780 ± 0.055) Pa
Either give an exact answer, or make sure you include at least 4 significant digits on your answer.
The pressure P (in kilopascals), volume V (in liters), and temperature T (in kelvins) of a mole of an
ideal gas are related by the equation PV = 8.31T. Find the rate at which the volume is changing
